Q: What makes the cluster scale linearly?

A: To fully scale horizontally, the Compuverde software in the storage cluster is designed to make the storage nodes independent of each other, but at the same time cooperate to form a homogenous storage cluster.

Q: How is scaling up the storage cluster affected?

A: Multicast enables higher cluster elasticity compared to a static DHT cluster. There is no need for moving data within the cluster when changing the size of the cluster, which is needed by design in a DHT cluster.
